Schoobie

A few months ago my husband came home with a new gift for “me”. It was certainly not something that fit into the budget, but nothing really is so on occasion the budget has to be ignored. It is a Scooba. Honestly, when Schoobie first came home (yes, he (yes, it’s a he)has a name), I was less than thrilled to have him here. Unhappy to have a sweeping/mopping robot in my house? Yes. The fact is, he created more work for me. Now instead only very occasionally sweeping the floors & absolutely never mopping, I had to deal with filling up & cleaning out this little robot everyday.

Really it’s Grace’s fault that schoobie & i didn’t get along at first. See, before she was born I had this great schedule down where I cleaned one or two rooms a day, including dusting, windows, mopping, the works. Then along came Grace & i’m lucky to get the laundry done & dinner on the table. Now that she’s a little older & I’m a little less “recovering from child-birth” I am capable of a bit more housework. However, mopping never really fit back into that picture…niether did sweeping. So suddenly I’m competing for my neat-freak husband’s affection with a robot. However, after discovering what it feels like to walk around barefoot without having to brush who knows what off my feet every 2 seconds, I’ve come around a bit. I mean, he even goes under the beds…heck, he goes under the DRESSER. He found a cute shoe in grace’s room that had been missing for months. We ran out of schoobie soap last week & i was a bit sad.

So, while i do still appreciate the occasional love note from my husband that simply says, “i love you more than i love schoobie” thank you ryan & welcome to the family…schoobie. If you have hardwood floors & hate mopping, I highly recommend it.

Need Some Headphones?

One way the Burns Family supports themselves is through selling amazing headphones. In particular, we sell the best noise cancelling headphones. These headphones were created by a studio drummer who wanted superior quality studio headphones that helped reduce ambient noise. So, these headphones are not just great drumming headphones, but they are great headphones for anyone who wants to get some peace and quiet by blocking out noise around them. I (Ryan) use the headphones every day and can't recommend them enough. So, head to one of our online stores and buy your set today!
